The first major incident recorded by the SLUFORA occurred in Polonnaruwa, in 1984. As per the inquiry reports of the SLUFORA, a blue spherical object was seen in the sky at around 12.30 one afternoon, in Mahawewa, Polonnaruwa. According to accounts of the three children and a school teacher who witnessed the incident, the object had landed adjacent to a nearby school, after which an obscure, humanoid creature had emerged from the object. The experience had reportedly shocked the three students, who had then fled the area.

Going by alleged sightings in Sri Lanka, school children seem to have a knack for spotting unusual phenomena, particularly of the extraterrestrial variety. The SLUFORA has recorded, in its casefile BAN-CE-II, how, in Bandarawela in 1998, two students aged 8 and 10 witnessed what they described as a large, disc-shaped object emitting red and yellow lights landing in their school grounds after it had hovered several feet in the air. According to one of the students, the object had a diameter of approximately eight feet and was seven feet in height. The report further noted that the students had witnessed a similar object hovering in the sky above the school on previous occasions, too. The two students had not approached the UFO, which they claimed had landed, and then hovered for seve...

In January 2000, three residents of Bollaththewa, Kosgama, claimed to have witnessed a glowing ball-like object speeding across the sky. According to the SLUFORA casefile KOS-CE-I, the spherical UFO also reportedly emitted a blinking blue light but had been around 200 feet above ground. The object had reportedly zigzagged across the night sky several times before disappearing. According to the SLUFORA, three witnesses had observed the object in three separate areas. The SLUFORA report concludes, however, that the eyewitness reports were contradictory, because the individuals had offered different descriptions, such as on how large the object was, the colour of the light emitted, and the speed at which it travelled.

The most prolific UFO sighting pursued by the SLUFORA was recorded in 2002, when, apparently, a wave of UFO sightings took place over a particular period of time. According to the SLUFORA casefile POL-CE-II-001, over the course of one month, more than 100 individuals had reported to have witnessed single or multiple UFO sightings in the Polonnaruwa area. And more importantly, various reports that came from all over the Polonnaruwa region possessed eerie similarities, pushing the investigators to conclude that this might not have been a contrived phenomenon.   Eyewitness reports had stated that a large number of glowing spherical objects had been seen hovering in the sky. These objects were always seen in clusters, emitting coloured lights from several feet above the ground. The...
